Method for Avoiding the Microbial Attack of a Cleaning Apparatus for a Metering Unit, and Cleaning Apparatus

Abstract

What is presented and described is a method for avoiding the microbial attack of a cleaning apparatus (X2), in particular a cleaning apparatus (X2) for a metering system, wherein the cleaning apparatus (X2) has at least one mechanical cleaning element (X29) with at least one cleaning surface (X31), wherein the method is characterized in that the at least one cleaning surface (X31) of the at least one mechanical cleaning element (X29) is exposed, at least temporarily, to an oxidizing agent. The present invention further relates to a method for cleaning a metering system, in particular for a dispersion, especially a paint-metering system, to a cleaning apparatus, and to a metering system.
